 🙂I So my final vote goes for Ranger 🙂 Not just because I think the weapons are stronger, but also because they're not tied to any elite spec (like the ones for Dragonhunter and Renegade), meaning you have many more options to play them.

Solid point.

Same i think ranger wins partially because we have the pets to take agro. we can then spend all our damage with bows, on other classes the dancing around trying not to get hit tends to lower my damage somewhat from bows as i cannot seem to stand at range.

Take a look at trap utities, especially on shortbow. They can do significant area damage while slowimg, or crippling foes so that they cant get to you before they die.

I use long bow and great sword on my core ranger PvP build (which I haven't played since EoD came out).  I have a power shortbow on my power alac ren for just running around the open world, and I have a shortbow on my condi alac ren (have a build that you basically just camp SB and the Elite skill, legend swap and repeat, plus Orders from above off cool-down for 100% alac).  I'd say they have their time and place.  I think that Ranger LB, took a few too many nerfs years back - in PvE I switched purely to axe/axe and GS for my PvE power Druid.  My long bows just sit in my inventory collecting dust.
